Description: At The Wings, a retirement community for former actresses, plans are afoot for a charity evening; a group of younger actresses are to come to give a fundraising performance for the ladies of the home. This event, and the arrival of a new resident, piques rivalries among the former greats as the bickering badinage of their former days is revisited in their dotage with aplomb. 'Waiting in the Wings' was first performed in Dublin in 1960.
